"It is the position of the American Dietetic Association that appropriately planned vegetarian diets, including total vegetarian or vegan diets, are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. Well-planned vegetarian diets are appropriate for individuals during all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, and adolescence, and for athletes."
So you were saying?

@lio.p most deadly human diseases are linked to animal products consumption.
"How important is it for us as a nation—and you as an individual—to change our eating habits? Of the 10 leading killer diseases in the United States, 6 are connected in some way to what we eat or drink. Combined, these 6—heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes mellitus, chronic liver disease and cirrhosis, and atherosclerosis—accounted for nearly 1.5 million deaths in 1987, nearly 70 percent of all deaths in the United States that year"
"People who follow a strict vegetarian diet—no meat, poultry, fish, eggs, or dairy products—tend to have lower blood pressure than those who eat a typical U.S. diet. Since strict vegetarians eat more monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids, and less total fat, saturated fatty acids, and cholesterol, it is reasonable to suspect that dietary fat may have something to do with developing hypertension." - Eat for Life

@BoolyK do you realize that animal agriculture is the second culprit for climate change, it is unhealthy and unethical...where the fuck did you took that stupid notion that we have to eat animal product. Vegetable, crops and legumes are the less expensive to grow and less wasteful than meat.
If somebody is talking from privilege and ignorance, that's you with zero understanding of how agriculture and nutrition works.
"Animal agriculture is choking the Earth, and the longer we turn a blind eye, the more we limit our ability to nourish ourselves, protect waterways and habitats, and pursue other uses of our precious natural resources. Raising livestock for meat, eggs and milk generates 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, the second highest source of emissions and greater than all transportation combined. It also uses about 70% of agricultural land, and is one of the leading causes of deforestation, biodiversity loss, and water pollution."
